Yes, unfortunately we never did get to the Linux build. The company that 
was funding us has cancelled the project, so work on Fusion is likely to 
 slow down. But I am going to work for Apple, which means I will be 
getting a new Intel based Mac, which mean I will be able to boot MacOS 
and WinXP and Linux on the box. So I will be able to get it building on 
all three OS's one one box!

Stay tuned!
